A Rewarding Role That Makes a Real Impact

Are you passionate about making a lasting difference in children’s lives? Do you have experience or a strong interest in working with children diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD)?

Teach Now is excited to present a fantastic opportunity for a Part-Time SEN Teaching Assistant to support pupils with ASD at a forward-thinking and inclusive primary school in Camden. This is more than just a job — it's a meaningful chance to help children thrive academically, socially, and emotionally in a nurturing environment.

About the School

Located in the heart of vibrant Camden, this Ofsted-rated ‘Good’ primary school is recognised for its warm, child-centred ethos and strong emphasis on inclusive education. The school benefits from excellent transport links (close to Overground, Underground, and major bus routes) and modern, well-resourced facilities designed to support pupils with a wide range of additional needs.

What sets this school apart:

• A collaborative SEN department led by experienced, supportive professionals

• Access to a sensory room, calm spaces, and bespoke learning tools

• Strong relationships with families, speech therapists, and educational psychologists

• A whole-child approach that fosters confidence, curiosity, and independence

The Role

As a SEN Teaching Assistant (ASD), you will:

• Work 1:1 and in small groups with students across Key Stages 1 and 2

• Assist with the implementation of individual education plans (IEPs)

• Use visual aids, sensory tools, and structured routines to support learning and engagement

• Collaborate with the SENCo, class teachers, and external specialists

• Promote a positive, consistent, and emotionally supportive learning environment

This part-time role is ideal for someone looking to make a significant impact in a flexible setting — whether you're a psychology graduate, a qualified TA, or an experienced caregiver with a passion for SEN education.

Requirements • Previous experience working with children with ASD or in a SEN environment

• Strong interpersonal skills, patience, and emotional intelligence

• An understanding of PECS, TEACCH, Makaton, or other ASD-related interventions is a plus

• A positive, proactive attitude and the ability to remain calm under pressure

• A DBS on the update service (or willingness to apply)

Benefits • Competitive daily pay (£85-£100, depending on experience)

• Professional development through Teach Now’s training programmes and CPD workshops

• A dedicated consultant who knows your local area and works with your career goals in mind

• Opportunity to transition into permanent roles or additional SEN qualifications

• Be part of a supportive and inspiring team at a school that genuinely values its staff
